Glasgow Residents Upset as Security Diverted Them Through Kelvingrove Park at Night
Police Scotland has issued an apology after women were directed through Kelvingrove Park at night due to road closures for a VIP reception at the COP26 climate summit. With roads around Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum cordoned off for the event, locals attempting to return home were rerouted, leading some to walk alone through the unlit park. Many residents shared concerns on social media, with one describing how she found a young student visibly distressed after being followed by a man while navigating the diversion. Police say they are reassessing their security protocol to ensure public safety during COP26.
